Wines

The French countryside is rich with both tradition and terroir, the special character a wine develops when its grapes have grown in a single region for a long time.

Local Varietals

  • Syrah
  • Merlot
  • Cabernet
  • Grenache
  • Chardonnay

The classic French countryside red wines tend to be full-bodied and hearty and the classic white wines of the area are aromatic and robust. And the rosé wines? They're crisp, refreshing, and deliciously fruity.
